A Truly Epic Adventure

A feat of entertainment, engineering and aesthetics, The American Adventure took Disney Imagineers 5 years to complete. The beautiful building in which it is housed was intended as a “people’s mansion,” taking design cues from the classic Georgian style of the late 1700s, Colonial Williamsburg, Independence Hall, Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello and the Old State House in Boston.

The façade of the American Adventure Pavilion is made of 110,000 bricks handmade from Georgia red clay, aged for an authentic look and feel. Its central rotunda is approximately 35 feet high, with its dome adding another 10 feet. The pavilion itself encompasses an expansive 108,555 square feet!

The American Adventure’s theater can accommodate up to 1,024 Guests, and there’s not a bad seat in the house. All of the pivotal moments in American history you’ll see appear and disappear seamlessly through the use of a computer-controlled movable device under the stage dubbed the “war wagon.” Ten different sets are stored there and are moved forward or backward on cue by this technological marvel. Just another example of good old-fashioned American ingenuity!
